Product Description

The Transformers battle explodes into uncharted territory when the Titans Return! To control an ancient race of giant, city-sized warriors - the Titans - the Autobots and Decepticons must power up with Titan Masters, smaller bots that give bigger bots increased abilities.

Fortress Maximus is the ultimate weapon. In his alt mode, he is a city, a headquarters the Autobots can use as a base of operations. In battle, his sheer size makes him almost unstoppable. He is one of the few known Titans that remain in the universe.

This Titans Return Titan Class Fortress Maximus figure comes with a Titan Master Emissary figure and a Cerebros figure. The Emissary figure becomes the head of the Cerebros figure, and the Cerebros figure becomes the head of the Fortress Maximus figure. Unite them and power up for battle.

At nearly 2 feet tall, the Fortress Maximus figure is the biggest in the Titans Return line. The Triple Changer figure features lights, battle sounds, and 3 modes: robot, battle station, and Autobot city. When the figure is in Autobot city and battle station modes, Titan Master figures fit inside. In Autobot city mode, the figure can connect to Titans Return Leader Class figures (sold separately) to form a Cybertron City. The Titan Master Emissary figure can become the head for Deluxe Class, Voyager Class, or Leader Class Titans Return figures. Additional figures each sold separately.

This figure is a present day remake of the 1989 Fortress Maximus that lives up to the previous toy. He is about three feet tall, the biggest transformer ever made. Changes from city to battle station to robot and back. Tons of articulation that can have him do plenty of poses. Space for other transformers of different sizes to stand on plus can connect with other titan return figures in base mode. The coolest part of Fort Max is that his head changes into a deluxe size figure named Cerebros and his head also becomes a smaller figure. Comes with one gun in the chest that Cerebros can hold and you can use other titan return heads on him but not Fortress Maximus himself. All in all this is a fun figure that I think most children would love cause of his huge size. Becareful with young children playing with him the figure is heavy probably around 10 pounds. You have to put his arm on when you take him out of the box and he has a large sheet of stickers that can take time to apply. Only thing I can say for collectors is if you bought metroplex it is the same figure retooled with the headmaster slot, so you might skip double dipping. Otherwise add this thing to your collection if you can afford it.

This was a figure I was looking forward to as a Transformers collector, and I'm not disappointed, Well, mostly. I saw some other reviews pointing out this figure's flaws, so I more-or-less knew what I was getting into when I bought Fortress Maximus.

First off, this toy is HUGE. Standing two feet tall in robot mode, Fortress Maximus towers over pretty much every Transformer figure in the Titans Return toyline. The only figures that come close are the original Fortress Maximus released in the 80s, and the Titan Metroplex figure released last year.

Speaking of, Fortress Maximus is an extended retool of Metroplex, and a lot of parts from that toy get reused in kind of creative ways. For instance, the ramps on Metroplex's legs are now on Fortress Maximus's shoulders, and the fold-out shoulder blaster that Metroplex has now clips to Fort Max's leg as a "Command Center", with a 5-mm hole and hardpoint for the titanmaster figures. Fort Max keeps Metroplex's extensive articulation, and improves on it somewhat with stronger knee joints.

Unfortunately, the fact that Fortress Maximus is a retool is the toy's first major flaw, as a few parts from the Metroplex set go unused here. The arm cannon that Metroplex had has been removed, but Fort Max still has the arm compartment, which doesn't have an official use. Fortress Maximus's legs open up like Metroplex's legs, and they have all the detailing, but again, they're not supposed to open in the official transformations.

The main draw of the guy is the Titan Masters gimmick. The head becomes a smaller robot, which Titan Masters can plug into. The figure is covered in pegs to plug the Titan masters into, and the chest has a turret which the smaller figures can fit into. He can also connect to Leader Class figures in base mode to make a larger city.

Ultimately, Fort Max is a flawed but enjoyable figure. I wouldn't recommend him for everyone, but I don't regret buying this for myself

The sucker is BIG!More different than Metroplex than I thought he'd be. However some may still only want one of this type of big guy.I like the head within a head master gimmick.Good homage to the original, but, just make sure you got space to display this big boy!

Fortress Maximus can transform from robot mode into either a battle station or city mode. The city mode incorporates ramps on both arms and his left shoulder, which can be attached to the base modes of Titans Return Leader Class figures to form a larger "Cybertron City". Some assembly is required as he is packaged with his left arm removed so that he can fit into a reasonable sized box. But once you pop his arm in it's very secure. Accompanying video review is not my own but does share my similar thoughts on the figure

I bought this for my husband. He's a big kid and a huge transformers fan. I was surprised by it's size when it came out the box but was more impressed by how much of a hands on item it was. What I mean is, unlike the previous purchases of transformers this one required you to apply all the stickers and other items for a complete product. I thought this was a great item. It makes you feel like you've accomplished something.
